Send us your opinion on rendition flights

Passage Oubli is an interactive artwork allowing the public to send messages to a touchscreen kiosk located in Toronto Pearson’s International Airport. Messages received are animated along flight trajectories on a map featuring airports involved in rendition flights. Passage Oubli invites citizens of the world in transit at Pearson’s International Airport to send messages (sms and web) relating to these questions: Are rendition flights an acceptable means of dealing with new terrorism threats? How does their use affect a countrys credibility as a defender of liberty? Does the end justify the means when it comes to pre-emptive war on terror? Are we compromising on the liberal democracies cherished principal of innocent-until-proven-guilty? How to send a message: 416 300-7669 (sms starting July 1st; the airport wireless hotspots provide free access to this URL). All messages will be curated by the artists: Maroussia Levesque, Jason Lewis, Yannick Assogba and Raed Mousa at Obx laboratory for Experimental Media. Passage Oublie is supported by Year Zero One, Concordia University and Hexagram
